ChitownBabyBenz C350

I sold my VW GLI in April and was driving either my mom's 06 Focus or my VROD Muscle around... When it was raining and my mom needed a car I relied on friends rides or public transportation blahhh... I needed a new car and I was looking for one... Was thinking about VW CC but in the same time I had VWs all my life and wanted something with more luxury and prestige. Big boy car. Looked at Audi A4 and BMW 3. Than I was like how about Benz? Test drove 2014 C250 and was sold. Couldn't really afford one and decided to settle for C350. After a month long extensive search found one I really liked $$$ and milage wise at Libertyville Chevrolet. 2009 C350 Sport with 14k miles @ $24995. On May 15 2013 I became proud owner of a Mercedes-Benz C-Class.

First mod. I hated the ugly plastic door pins. Geez mercedes! They belong on some cheap Chevy from 15 years ago... So I got these off of eBay. So much better.

Another little mod I did today made the front end way cleaner. Clear bumper markers with chromed bulbs.
Before

Now

Nice a 2009 with only 14K miles, just be careful with the door pins on the rear doors, pop out the old ones are easy but put the new one in you'll need to open the door panel, take about 3 minute per side easy. enjoy your ride...
a little question, is your 2009 from China or South Africa?

Door pins were easy indeed. Fronts just screwed in, the rear ones popped in no problems and sit there tight. The key is to press them in firmly but not too hard. No need to take the door covers off. At least for me.
And it's from South Africa. Thanks.
